My MOST FUN (and Easiest to Build) RC Track!

My dirt oval has quickly become one of my favorite Backyard RC Tracks! I grew up around dirt oval racing and eventually found myself racing winged sprint cars here in the Northwest! A lot of the best racing happens on these dirt ovals around the country, but in RC the oval community isn't nearly as big as off-road. Because of that I waited quite a few years to build myself an oval, but I wish I would have built one sooner.
It's not only super satisfying to try to make perfect laps, but it's super fun to do battle with our 4x4 Short Course trucks! My track is a little bull ring short track, and with the short course bodies, we can really go wheel to wheel and lean on eachother in the corners! We have a blast doing it, and the setting in the woods at my house under the lights is super cool!
If you're thinking about building your own RC Track this is where I'd start, and you could even expand outwards to include an off-road track and have kind of a 2 in 1 setup! You'll probably get more out of your space that way, and it's easier to maintain 1 track than two separate ones!
Thanks for watching!

You definitely should! Super simple build, and endless fun. Even for people that run Off-road, it's super satisfying to try to make good lap after good lap, especially in traffic!

I plan to build my own practice track as soon as i get a chance. I have plenty of land with decent soil. Is this turned up topsoil or did you have to haul in dirt?

I'm curious if it's smooth enough, probably not at the moment considering what mother natures done lately. And with the banking I don't know if they have the suspension travel... but I've got one sitting in the garage waiting for electronics so we will see eventually

The night atmosphere with the lighting is fantastic (the forested surroundings help too!). Oval tracks are completely unfamiliar to me. Do you wash off speed in the higher elevation turn just by easing off throttle and turning in? Is it similar in the lower turn, or closer to no throttle or the tiniest amount of braking to get the weight were you want it, and the turn in speed right? Another great video, thank you for sharing it.

Because my track has such different corners both of the techniques you mentioned are in play. I usually use a little understeer or rotation to find the right speed. If I overdrive the entry or I'm trying to go to the inside I'll definitely use the brake but the brake is always there for control, especially when you're close to another car. I think the coolest thing to me is that it actually gets a cushion and as long as you're not too fast you can catch it pretty nicely and use it like a sling shot! I think it works best in turning to the right, which is probably why I have a little more fun! It's more uphill into the flatter turn and then the bottom turn really acts as a bowl in that direction so it lets you drive a bit harder. Bottom turn going left you really have to enter the outside smoothly because it's pretty steep in that direction. Super fun both ways especially with a couple cars out there to battle

Im not winning the compromise for backyard space with the old lady. Im thinking an oval may be best. The area i have to use can fit an oval similar to yours. I can build an infield 38ft×10ft. 8ft wide straight aways. 10ft wide turns. I can fit a damn 8th scale track in my yard but happy wife happy life

Ease her into it, you can start with the oval then maybe add to it for Offroad... tell her it's a lot better than other things you could be doing

Awesome! I just tilled up a big patch in my yard and tried to smooth it out but it’s so bumpy. Any tips to get the track nice and smooth?
@TheRacinJason
@TheRacinJason 7 ай бұрын
Definitely! Grab a rake, or you could drag a screen behind a mower or quad. And then lots and lots of water. Best thing for smoothing your track is going to be a big rain storm... and then just patience. The track will develop and change with the weather and how much you run on it and maintain it. They're bound do be pretty rough when they're brand new

I think the 2wd late models look pretty fun! On dirt I just love how you can over drive the 4wd stuff, but I did pick up a sprint car because my local track built a big fast oval and the truck just gets too hot. I'm gonna run out of garage space for RC stuff... not sure I'll add any 2wd stuff other than the sprint car, but if anyone brings a short course over ill snag some video

@NikkiNexo777 it will definitely happen. Need to get the electronics in the car and a paint/wrap job on the car but it's definitely on the agenda. Might be after the first of the year because I'm about to leave for flight instructor academy here soon and have to do a lot of studying for that.
